Facelift C63 AMG noise when changing gear

Hi, I have a 2010 C63. Before I purchased the car, I test drove a 2012 plate (facelift) car. When the facelift car shifted gear, it would make a nice noise from the exhaust (I think it was putting fuel in there or something). My 2010 car does not do this.

How does the 2012 car do this and is there any way to get my car to do it.

This may sound childish but I like the sound the newer car makes

Is this impossible without the MCT gearbox?

Put it in S or M mode and it should do it on downshifts if the car is driven aggressively.

It does it on the downshifts just fine. Its the upshifts that I wanted it on. I wondered if it could be done with Eurocharged etc but if its a feature of the gearbox then I presume not.
